Meet Tab Salsman —

— hair artist, educator, photographer, and podcast host, who’s passionate about bringing out the best in people. Through my years of experience in the salon, my talent for capturing stunning headshots as a photographer, and the engaging conversations I have on my thought-provoking podcast, I’m dedicated to showcasing the authentic beauty and power of each individual.

I live and breathe hair artistry. For over 20 years, I’ve been honing my skills as a hair cutting specialist and educator, bringing out the unique beauty in every person who sits in my chair. Whether I’m at Ron King Salon in Austin, TX, or flying back to California to see my clients, I’m constantly inspired by the incredible people who trust me with their hair.

But it’s not just about the hair for me. As a photographer, I’m obsessed with capturing the best version of people through stunning headshots or capturing the unique story of each person through conversations on my podcast, where I love to chat with fascinating people about deep and fascinating topics.

I’m proud to be an educator for Pureology and Hattori Hanzo, sharing my passion and knowledge with hairdressers across the country and as the creator and owner of www.toolsandbags.com, I’m always pushing the boundaries to design the best combs, clips, and bags for hairdressers.

At the end of the day, it’s all about the people for me. I want to make sure that everyone who I work with walks away feeling confident and inspired. I’m so grateful for this incredible journey, and I can’t wait to see what’s next! 

I’d like to meet you, too —
